Hey,

My pc is shutting itself off instantly (not blue screening) while the GPU is under heavy load, when rendering a video or playing a game like SW Battlefront 2. I would usually assume its the PSU dying but I have a Gold 750W Corsair RM750i Series and purchased it in 07/2020.

System specs:
GPU - 3060TI FE
CPU - R5 2600
PSU - 750W Corsair RM750i Series Gold
Memory - 16 GB DDR4
Motherboard - B450-A Pro MS-7B86

I assume the PSU is just failing and I should get another under warrenty but that would have me without a PC for a couple months knowing customer service, any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

"I assume the PSU is just failing"
I wouldn't just assume this.
That PSU is a decent one and not that old.
Have you checked...

Have you checked your GPU and CPU temps?
